Liberal lawyer Dershowitz says no Trump crime in Georgia call, just bad media reporting

"I've been teaching criminal law for over 50 years. I went through every word of that transcript, there is no crime there, period," famed law professor says.

I am not sure what propaganda sites you have been visiting, but pretty much everything I have been seeing, from lawyers as well, is that although you could justify pressing charges, any sort of conviction would be far-fetched.  Maybe you should look at more quality news sites instead of just getting worked up over shills?

I quoted a Harvard Law Professor. Please provide a quote from a source with equal or greater relevant credentials if you have a rebuttal.

A quick search shows many sites reporting things almost exactly as Rama described. Roughly paraphrasing, 'what he did is probably illegal, but likely can't be prosecuted'. I'd agree Trump probably managed to Toe the line just enough to keep himself out of formal legal trouble, but this shows an extremely desperate man clutching at straws...

here's a law professor:
“I think in order to deter potentially authoritarian-oriented presidents and presidential candidates it would be important to prosecute activity like this because it really does undermine the very basic aspect of a democracy -- that we don’t stuff the ballot box,” said Richard Hasen, a law professor at the University of California Irvine.

Isn't Dershowitz that lawyer that defended Trump from impeachment with the argument that if Trump believes that fixing the election is in the country's best interest that it's not illegal?

Yes, but Tom literally couldn't care less if his preferred sources are incredibly biased towards Trump.

If you are going to claim it's partisan then you debonked yourself, because the Democrats in the House were the ones who initiated the impeachment proceedings.

https://www.wsj.com/articles/house-prepares-to-vote-on-impeaching-trump-11576667768

House Votes to Impeach President Trump

"Democrats and Republicans vote almost entirely along party lines; president denounces effort to remove him from office

...

Nearly all Democrats, led by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.), supported abuse-of-power and obstruction-of-Congress charges against Mr. Trump in the wake of his pressing Ukraine to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden, a leading 2020 Democratic presidential candidate.

The chamber’s Republicans rejected both articles, saying Democrats failed to show that Mr. Trump had committed a crime and that they had managed a flawed process."

I mean, the Senate didn't even bother to hear witnesses, so technically he was acquitted but it was a pathetic kangaroo court.  I personally don't think it would have mattered, but it was obviously political theatre rather than a serious commitment to the process.

I didn't say anything about name calling. I suggested that such comments show that democrats are fanatical and unconfident in themselves. You don't need to impeach Trump if you think he's out in two weeks.

Looks pretty unconfident, IMO. At least pick a crime which people unanimously agree is a crime.

Well that’s a ringing endorsement.
Tom: "Claiming incredulity is a pretty bad argument. Calling it "insane" or "ridiculous" is not a good argument at all."

TFES Wiki Occam's Razor page, by Tom: "What's the simplest explanation; that NASA has successfully designed and invented never before seen rocket technologies from scratch which can accelerate 100 tons of matter to an escape velocity of 7 miles per second"

Trump's impeachment was bipartisan.  In the senate democrats and a republican voted to convict.  So it's not quite along party lines.

Also many republicans openly acknowledged Trump's abuses of power but decided that impeachment wasn't the best remedy.

It prevents him from running in 2024, which is extremely worthwhile, since he is a terrible person to have in charge.

No, that he hasn't committed one that EVERYONE agrees is a crime.

When I find such a crime, I'll let you know.  But so far, all crimes are not considered crimes by all.

Ex. Some people consider raping children to be perfectly acceptsble behavior.  In some cultures, people still marry off child brides.  And its legal.

Murder is also not a universal crime.  Tom, for example, likely agrees that murder in self defense is not a crime.  Proving its self defense is another matter, of course.  Like shooting someone 10 times in the back while they flee, unarmed, is not a crime to some.
If you are going to DebOOonK an expert then you have to at least provide a source with credentials of equal or greater relevance. Even then, it merely shows that some experts disagree with each other.
